A few people are trapped in a space probe at sea.
It begins to well, it ends well, but that boring 20-question routine in the middle will put you to sleep. This would have been a classic if it only lasted 25 minutes, so do yourself a favour, once act one ends, picture search to act four, and you will have a gem!
The mutant creature seen in this hour actually looks better when seen in colour in the Star Trek episode: Devil In The Dark.
In fact, now that I mention it, there were several times during the 49 episodes of The Outer Limits where I would say: "I would love to see this in colour".
But the B&W is fine, B&W is sometimes good for sci-fi, the B&W first season of Lost In Space looked better than the two colour seasons that came after. So The Outer Limits stands as a gem with only six stinkers in the 49 episode run: not bad at all!
